Barbara 15,149 Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 He can definitely use a rest. I wouldn't play him in either games this week. He says he's okay (probably concerning his injury), but I guess it's time Mourinho starts to use him wisely. This boy has been playing football with barely no vacation 17-18 months now with only those three week-vacation between Confeds Cup and our pre-season. He must have more than 100 matches under his belt in that period, if not more than 110 - which is crazy.We're going to need him a lot in the second semester, when the tough matches come, playing him scarcely now - especially with the in theory manageable sides we have in December with the exception of Arsenal and Liverpool. It seems fitting for Mourinho to rest him and I hope he can resist the temptation of playing Oscar every match.edit: checked on ESPN FC. He's played 135 matches in the last two calendar years (2012/13) in about 18-19 months as he didn't play most of Internacional's first semester last year because of judicial issues.http://espnfc.com/player/_/id/173667/oscar?cc=3888 pgleo and Mufassir08 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushman 2,043 Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Oscar injured his ankle last week. Despite of it, he played yesterday. I do not know why though.Therefore, he should be rested now, at least this week. Mata is an adequate replacement, easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluesman2610 1,417 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 If you are going to classify Mikel he is a no. 6 but thats neither here nor there.. Oscar deserves a rest and as many have said we have more than enough cover to give it to him.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChelseasMessiah 304 Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 He did well in the first 20 minutes but there was a moment in the 41st minute where he went down after a challenge and touched his ankle for a bit, then limped for a minute or two before the half time whistle. Perhaps he still had a bit of a niggle even before the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps he still had a bit of a niggle even before the game.I saw that too, but regardless, before that and after that I think he didn't have a good match. It was decent at best, and Schürrle has been playing better than him. Between him, Mata and Willian I don't know if right now there is much of a difference. Willian is oscillating, Mata is far from his best level and Oscar is very down from the start of the season he had. We have Schurrle and Hazard playing really well, but the other three are sort of the same, one may have a better match, then another, but they're kind of the same, so I think maybe we could rotate a bit in the CAM position and leave the two wings for André and Eden. yuvala 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soul Caliber X 27 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Mata played three games and we concede seven goals, Oscar starts and we keep a clean sheet, maybe this is why Mourinho starts Oscar over Mata. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korea 734 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I thought Oscar played well in the first half...Set up plays.Came back for the ball and passed the ball fast. He probably should of done better with his shot in the beginning of the game, but overall I thought he played well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
